In Sarah Mervosh's column, "Sex and Free Will," (Sept. 22) she asks, "After all, wasn't it Jesus who said that he who is without sin may cast the first stone?" Indeed, in John 8, with those words, Jesus stopped a crowd that was ready to stone a woman that had been caught in the act of adultery. After the crowd dropped their stones and left, without anyone to come forward to condemn the adulterous woman, Jesus told her to "go and sin no more." (John 8:11; KJV).
That last part is so often overlooked.
